Description:

Add a Gas Works industry which produces ‘town gas’ (fuel) from coal.

If loaded when generating a map, the game generate instances of it. If loaded afterwards, the industry can be placed manually, if the feature is enabled.

In 19th century and up to their replacement in the 70s by natural gas, British towns and cities had Gas Works, which burnt coal to create ‘town gas’ that was piped to fuel heating and lighting in the vicinity.

If manually placing, it’s suggested to place it close to the town. Since the game can’t pipe the gas into town, I’ve made large capacity trucks to transport the fuel produced. See the Coal Merchant Trucks (by JK) mod:
